Yes, it is. It's an attempt to limit what women are allowed to enjoy & make it an act of betrayal if its things more commonly enjoyed by men https://twitter.com/YeyoZa/status/877795335849951234 …

This quote - 'Cool Girls never get angry; they only smile in a chagrined, loving manner and let their men do whatever they want.'

That I understand. Its somehow a betrayal of women not to take men doing things they like as a personal insult.
-
There have been times when I did not want my husband to go to the pub or have friends over for football & beer when Lucy was a baby.
-
And because he has four brothers, there have been times when the environment got altogether too male for my tastes.
-
But there is a tendency for gender ideologues to regard this as a personal insult rather than simply going away & leaving them to it.
-
And the rage at women who don't want to go away and leave them to it but actually want to join in stems from this.
-
Because then it appears its not intrinsically hostile to women to like sports, beer & video games & that simply isn't on.
-
A common theme: “My personal dislike or discomfort is evidence of a larger societal injustice.”

I like crude jokes, red meat, burping - hate video games, horror movies, sports, etc.
-
And I'm super lucky. The only sport my husband likes is MMA. Thank God! I don't have to deal with it.
-
I'm lucky we have a conservatory with a TV, games console & beer fridge so I don't have to deal with it either. Once I did this:pic.twitter.com/CAYLS8W75M

Ha! Same set up in the basement. Xbox, TV, fridge, guitars, amps, swords, weird shit....plus kid toys and laundry. :)

Being an introvert who really values solitude and isn't easily bored, I'm always VERY happy when bfs/husbands do their own thing.

The other way to look at this is: I've never come across a hobby (and I have a wide range) that didn't have some women who enjoyed it.
